She was never meant to be his bride. Lara Bhatt loved Dr. Vikrant Singh Rajvanshi in silence for years, but he belonged to her younger sister—until Mahira vanished two weeks before the wedding and left both families drowning in scandal. To save their honor, Lara became the replacement bride. For over two years, she has been the perfect wife to a man who never chose her. By day, Vikrant is cold, distant, and untouchable. By night, he reaches for her with a hunger that breaks her heart all over again. But Lara has learned the cruelest lesson of marriage: desire is not love. Then Vikrant begins to see her—not as Mahira’s shadow, not as a duty, but as the woman who has quietly held his world together. Now he wants his wife. Her trust. Her heart. Her future. But when Mahira returns to reclaim the life she abandoned, Vikrant must choose publicly, completely, and irrevocably. Because Lara is done being the woman who stayed in another woman’s place. She wants to be chosen. And this time, the ruthless surgeon may have to lose everything to prove she already has his heart. **The Replacement Bride of the Ruthless Surgeon** is an emotional arranged-marriage romance featuring a powerful medical dynasty, a rejected wife, a ruthless hero brought to his knees, family secrets, betrayal, redemption, and a hard-won happily ever after.**
